The number 94 from the list of lists, came into my possession.
I'm talking about the Honda NSX! And I'm already proud.

What a beauty





1st model what I meet with hubcaps!

The model has a number of major issues and a thorough cleaning is required.
Then she will be nicer.

Rebuild Gr. C (new parts):



Done:



Need to replace the bathtub in the future.

With the body:

Parts for the second rebuild, the body!


The plan is to him 'Imola Orange NSX' like they used to be:

Very nice resto. Awesome car - as it is in real life. One of my all time favourites.

Very nice!
I look forward to seeing your masking as I am alos about to paint my NSX body

And, I think you are right, this must be the only RC vehicle with "proper" hub caps

Hey Lars what color are you going to spray yours? let me get box- art red?

I'm trying something different, since it's a street spec. car.

First have to finish clearing the body from it's old silver paint and black rear bumper

Being a strict Box-Art-Builder, I have to go with red

-Lars

update; first post

What did you do to get the paint off?

I've used the paintkiller (Carson/ tamiya)

Seing a NSX last week it made me want to continue with mine.

SO that's exactly what i did.

finished up with cleaning the body, took a few days to do it but I'm happy with the result:




Already bought the paint;
Trans orange
Silver
Black

Black top and silver to back the orange body.

Not sure about the wheels, I'm thinking about something more realistic..

Also need to polish the hood, had been ruined with so glue a long time ago.
Already grinned it, but it's still visible..

Enjoy

Nice, my NSX came with the Top Force Evo I bought couple off weeks ago, mine has a terrible paintjob and some cracks but I might be able to save it with some small alterations.
Where did you score the second pair of hubcaps? mine came without, guess because the original car was Nissan R91CP (ergo the blue frame) and the NSX came as a bodykit.



Colour is PS-23 to bad I used all on my Evo yesterday. Was thinking of making the roof black and maybe also the middle part of the front and sanding it matte.
